Hello. I'm an engineer and my client is using the 9274 panel locks to join aluminum tubes. I can see online that the rated capacity is 1.1 tons. Can you please clarify what this number is based on? What is the factor of safety to the ultimate capacity? Thank you.

The load rating is 1000kg / 2204lb based on allowable stress.  We are currently unable to provide advice on applications outside of its intended use.
